Our Team
Having a diverse team of individuals who come from various backgrounds and mindsets creates an environment of collective creativity that promotes innovation and fosters inclusion and tolerance. The Undie Chest team is dedicated to eradicating hygiene poverty for our most vulnerable populations. A quote from James Baldwin summarizes our determination to tackle this problem:
"Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” James Baldwin
